To celebrate Knizia games 30 years anniversary, I am organising a Kniziathon at Jolt Games. A Kniziathon is an open gaming event to discover and play many of the board games designed by Dr. Reiner Knizia. Knizia has published more than 600 games since he started 30 years ago.

The idea of the kniziathon is to play as many of the games designed by Knizia on the day of the event. No previous experience is required and it is open for everyone. I will appreciate if attendees with knowledge of any of the games, teach others how to play.

Rules

Registration is required upon arrival.

All games played need to be recorded in provided score sheets. Players earn points depending on players end game position and the complexity of the game.

There will be sheets or posters with the table that indicates how many points players get depending the numbers of players in the game as well as the geeklist with games weighting.

Players score will be equal players position points multiply by the game weighting.

Players are able to play the same game as many times as they want, however they will only get points through the Kniziathon once, based on their best outcome.

Cooperative games such as Lord of the Rings or Star Trek Expeditions will count (provided that I source a copy for the event). All players receive the same positions points, depending on the group success.

At the end of the day the player with the most points will named the winner of the Kniziathon.

Knizia games sourced for this event are listed in this geeklist.

Let me know if more games can be brought to the event so I can add them to this list.

Andrew Smith took first place certificate and Age of War game signed by Dr Knizia.Paul Street took second place certificate and En Garde game also signed.Richard Brown took the third place certificate and Game of Thrones: Westeros intrigue game also signed

Special thanks to all the friend in ACT to lend their games, all the participants and Jolt Games to host our event.

Very special thanks to Dr Reiner Knizia for let us be part of the 30 year anniversary of Knizia games.

They explained everything in detail and at great length. After they finished I sat, despondent, contemplating a bleak and empty future. "I’m glad you’re depressed" said one. "It means you’ve understood the situation.”
